Abstract

A three-dimensional shaped object manufacturing device is adapted to produce a three-dimensional shaped object by laminating layers using a pasty composition containing granular substances. The three-dimensional shaped object manufacturing device includes a stage in which the composition is supplied and the layers are formed, a side surface supporting section arranged on a side surface of the stage, and an adhesion preventing part configured and arranged to prevent adhesion of the composition on a surface of the side surface supporting section. The stage is movable relative to the side surface supporting section in a lamination direction of the layers.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A three-dimensional shaped object manufacturing device adapted to produce a three-dimensional shaped object by laminating layers using a pasty composition containing granular substances, the three-dimensional shaped object manufacturing device comprising:
 a stage in which the composition is supplied and the layers are formed;   a side surface supporting section arranged on a side surface of the stage; and   an adhesion preventing part configured and arranged to prevent adhesion of the composition on a surface of the side surface supporting section,   wherein the stage is movable relative to the side surface supporting section in a lamination direction of the layers.   
     
     
         2 . The three-dimensional shaped object manufacturing device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the adhesion preventing part is a liquid repellent film provided on the surface of the side surface supporting section.   
     
     
         3 . The three-dimensional shaped object manufacturing device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the adhesion preventing part is a heating unit configured and arranged to heat the side surface supporting section.   
     
     
         4 . The three-dimensional shaped object manufacturing device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the stage is configured to be movable in the lamination direction of the layers.   
     
     
         5 . The three-dimensional shaped object manufacturing device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the side surface supporting section is configured to be movable in the lamination direction of the layers.   
     
     
         6 . The three-dimensional shaped object manufacturing device according to  claim 1 , further comprising
 a bonding liquid application unit configured and arranged to apply a bonding liquid for biding the granular substances.   
     
     
         7 . The three-dimensional shaped object manufacturing device according to  claim 6 , further comprising
 an ultraviolet irradiation unit,   wherein the bonding liquid contains an ultraviolet curable resin.   
     
     
         8 . A manufacturing method of a three-dimensional shaped object, comprising:
 manufacturing the three-dimensional shaped object using the three-dimensional shaped object manufacturing device according to  claim 1 .   
     
     
         9 . A manufacturing method of a three-dimensional shaped object comprising:
 performing a series of processes plural times, the series of processes including
 a layer forming process which forms a layer using a pasty composition containing granular substances, and 
 a moving process which moves the layer downward relative to a side surface supporting section configured and arranged to support a side surface of the layer, 
   wherein the performing the series of processes being performed using a device including an adhesion preventing part configured and arranged to prevent adhesion of the composition to a surface of the side surface supporting section.   
     
     
         10 . The manufacturing method according to  claim 9 , further comprising
 a bonding liquid application process which applies a bonding liquid for bonding the granular substances to the layer.   
     
     
         11 . A three-dimensional shaped object manufactured using the three-dimensional shaped object manufacturing device according to  claim 1 . 
     
     
         12 . A three-dimensional shaped object manufactured using the method according to  claim 8 .
